Going to give it another go starting from 1 hour ago. After buying a pack of 10 this morning and realising they have gone up yet again Â£2.44 now yesterday im sure they were 20p less than that, but then i dont really notice the price. block it out i think. i only noticed today because the woman who served me said "bloody hell theyve gone up overnight".

Last night i was in the shop with my daughter and she was asking for some drinks for her pack lunches (she usually has orange in a flask thingy) and I had the cheek to pull my face cos they were Â£2.00 for 4. Puts it into perspective a bit. Sorry im waffling now. I will be posting tomorrow on Day 1 and hope I can mustor the strength to do it this time for the last time.

Hi Looby Lou, have you thought about getting a prescription from your Doctor for some Champix. I smoked between 40 and 50 a day for 47 years, and Champix have really, really helped me to quit. I am on day 22 now, and it has not been nearly as bad as l was expecting it to be. It might be worth a try.

Thanks everyone - what a nice welcome back. Have been lurking alot lately. I have thought about the champix but am not a good tablet taker. Have always thought if they put side effect sheets in cig packets that would be me sorted. lol.
